New Web service shows the relationships and networks at the top of the Danish economy
Now you can get to know and read information among the country's highest leaders. Greens Erhvervsinformation has just launched a new search tool, which should make it easier for interested persons to uncover relationships in a particular category of persons. The information is historical and dates back 25 years.
"It is well known that Danish senior managers make use of each other in each other's boards. How extensive their networks are, however, have been less clear, until now. We have identified the relationships among the senior management and can now through our online service graphically show, who knows who, "says Tina Holgersen, Greens.
25 years of data
Greens have gathered information from the Danish Erhvervs-og Selskabsstyrelsen on the positions of all Danish companies' boards and councils in 25 years back with their own detailed personal biographies with information about educations, previous employers and other assignments. Greens are the only Danish company with more than 10,000 personal biographies.
The database includes senior executives and policy makers in Denmark, companies and groups in both the private and public sectors.
"Many people use this information to prepare for meetings, interviews and keep themselves updated on those who join boards of directors and other groups. The information can be used by top management to find the next top-level people or to keep themselves informed about the people behind the competitors." says Tina Holgersen.
